The guy is paying his dues and growing into the position imo.

I would think he would have to go be a HC at a small school for a few years and with success we give him a call.

he better get some HC experience elsewhere first besides OP Walker.

Heir apparent for what?

How exactly? He's being paid very well for his work as a position coach and recruiter. How exactly is that "paying his dues?"

Growing into the position of HC? WTF are you talking about? Please explain how he is "growing into the position" of head coach. That makes absolutely no sense.

Not unless he takes a HC job at a decent mid-major school & has some success before Les retires.

I think I it has to be cas by case. I mean Vince Lombardi was an assistant at one point. would you turn him down for lack of experience? Obviously it's more of an unknown when you hire a coordinator but for the right guy any AD should be willing to do it.

If it were apparent then you wouldn't have to ask.

There are a couple of reasons I won't go into here that it will not happen in my lifetime. One reason that I will go into is that there are still too many way bad memories of what happened the last time we "promoted" an assistant to HC. Archer, while a good guy and a good DC, was simply not HC material. No, for what LSU is paying they will go with someone proven. As for Frank Wilson, there is no doubt that the day will come that he will be offered an HC gig somewhere at a smaller school. The question at that point is going to be whether he likes the money he is getting at LSU (and for doing a pretty decent job) or stepping off into uncharted waters for a lot less money and nothing that certain. Actually, I see him going to a coordinator gig at another college or even an assistant in the NFL.

He has never even been a coordinator at the college level and you think he is gonna be lsu's head coach.

Would much rather sink Frank succeed Les, than Cameron, but it probably won't be either one.

Les is not known for turning out HC caliber assisstants. See Paveto at Northwestern.
If Wilson has HC aspirations, he will need to cut his teeth with another program first.
Guy can definitely recruit, but a successful HC needs to demonstrate an ability to hire good people around him, innovate, and manage a game.
Recruiting alone may get you 8 wins and a December bowl game, but not too long ago that was unacceptable at LSU.
